Title: Implementation of the Local 

Competition Provisions of the 

Telecommunications Act of 1996, CC 

Docket No. 96–98, Second Report and 

Order and Memorandum Opinion and 

Order; Second Order on 

Reconsideration; CC Docket No. 99–273, 

First Report and Order.

Total Annual Burden: 228,030 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $60,000. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

Respondents are not required to submit 

or disclose confidential information. 

Needs and Uses: The Commission 

will submit this information collection 

to the OMB as an extension after this 60 

day comment period to obtain the full 

three-year clearance from them. The 

number of respondents, total burden 

hours and annual costs remain 

unchanged. 

In the First Report and Order issued 

under CC Docket No. 99–273 in 2001, 

the Commission adopted several of its 

tentative proposals. The Commission 

concluded that the local exchange 

carriers (LECs) must provide competing 

directory assistance (DA) providers that 

qualify under section 251 with 

nondiscriminatory access to the LEC’s 

local directory assistance databases, and 

must do so at nondiscriminatory and 

reasonable rates. The Commission 

determined that LECs are not required 

to grant competing DA providers 

nondiscriminatory access to non-local 

director assistance databases. All of the 

requirements are implemented under 

sections 251 and/or 222 of the 

Telecommunications Act of 1996.
